"Should auld acquaintance be forgot / and never brought to mind? / Should auld acquaintance be forgot / and days of auld lang syne?..."
Goodbye 2007... Hewoooo 2008!
The last day of 2007 for me started out with a mad rush after work to Dragon Restaurant to collect RM100 worth of Japanese taufu and RM50 worth of salad chicken. There were so many take-aways on the tables with labels of recipients' name, yours truly included hehe...
Then off to caroling... 2 houses only as the rest had cancelled. Good-good-good *grin* My house was the last house, and as such we have prepared a feast for all to attack.
At the stroke of midnight... the dark sky and easy-going camaraderie of our guests were lit and shaken by loud crackings of firework displays! Left and right the colourful displays made the already charged atmosphere somehow charged up another notch.
Look up! It's a plane, it's a bird... it's a firework display!
Our DJ (Nicco) of the night promptly switched to "Auld Lang Syne" as everyone hugged and wished one another "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" ... "MAY ALL THE BAD LUCKS BE LEFT BEHIND IN 2007!" ... "YIKES! I'D BE A YEAR OLDER!" ... on and on it went ...
But for the younger cousins... the moment they've been waiting for has arrived!
Jump! Splash! Yay!
Hardwork paid off for Nicco & his pool cleaning crew hahar! The pool was an instant hit. See here, most of the pool occupants didn't expect to get fully wet... but... *evil grin* ... very stylish bathing getup they have on eh ;-P
Bro. Columba & his mates ... just having orange fizzy lar. And two Eayores... Chrissie's babies hmmm...
It was quite a chilly night, so some of us delicate ones opted to just wash some parts of our body and made a hasty retreat before the water gun hit us!
With our belly full, and year 2008 ushered in... the nescafes came out to invite everyone into getting cosy and chatty before one by one the sleepyheads finally called it a night :-) It was almost 3.30 am when the last tail-lights left our lawn.
Here's wishing that your new year was just as memorable and fun-filled!
